Notes

  1. ^ Game abandoned after 15 minutes due to heavy rain and poor lighting at the Dhaka Stadium.[4]
  2. ^ Mohammedan refused to play extra time without Moosa Ghazi, who had been sent off during regular time. A minute after extra time began, Moosa re-entered the field. When the referee, M.A. Hamza, asked him to leave, Mohammedan refused to continue the match. Later that day, the tournament committee awarded the match to Pakistan Airlines while the East Pakistan Sports Federation imposed a six-month suspension on Moosa.[6]
  3. ^ Game abandoned 5 minutes before full-time at 3–2 due to poor lighting. Notably, the game started at 4:36pm instead of 4:00 pm as the East Pakistan Sports Federation failed to provide Pakistan Western Railway transport to Dhaka Stadium.[7]
